Outdoor lighting in Sandton

Sandton's outdoor lighting is often about design as much as security. Large homes in Hyde Park, Bryanston, Morningside and Atholl call for landscape uplighting, pool lighting and architectural wall washes, while cluster complexes in Rivonia and Sunninghill need practical bulkheads and floods. The Sandton CBD, hotels and office towers add commercial and hospitality work. Summer lightning and hail are constant risks, and stolen cable has left some roads with dark streetlights. High walls and long driveways make motion-activated security lighting standard. Many homeowners add battery backup or solar for load-shedding. Residents' associations may object to glare, and a CoC is required for mains wiring.

Choosing fittings for Sandton

In Sandton, summer storms and power surges is what shortens the life of outdoor fittings. Ask each supplier to quote architectural aluminium, surge protection, IP65, and compare the warranty on the LED driver, not only on the housing.

Patio Lights usually come at IP44 to IP65, with 2700 K to 3000 K warm white. 3 to 15 W, 230 V or 12 V.

What to include in your request

  • Give the patio size and roof or ceiling type
  • Mark the table, braai and step positions
  • Say whether the patio is covered or open
  • Ask for separate switching and dimming
  • Mention thatch, if you have a lapa

The more detail you give, the more accurate your quote will be.
